The correct Answer is:
To find the fraction of the pizza left after Anshul eats \( \frac{4}{7} \) of it, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the whole pizza A whole pizza can be represented as \( 1 \). ### Step 2: Write down the fraction eaten Anshul eats \( \frac{4}{7} \) of the pizza. ### Step 3: Calculate the fraction left To find the fraction of the pizza left, we subtract the fraction eaten from the whole pizza: \[ \text{Fraction left} = 1 - \frac{4}{7} \] ### Step 4: Convert \( 1 \) to a fraction with the same denominator To perform the subtraction, we need to express \( 1 \) as a fraction with a denominator of \( 7 \): \[ 1 = \frac{7}{7} \] ### Step 5: Subtract the fractions Now we can subtract: \[ \frac{7}{7} - \frac{4}{7} = \frac{7 - 4}{7} = \frac{3}{7} \] ### Conclusion The fraction of the pizza left is \( \frac{3}{7} \). ---
